Wednesday we got in the car and drove to Great Wolf Lodge in Wisconsin Dells for our annual Farwell Gang reunion. This is the first time we did an overnight get together with everyone. It ended up working out better than I think we all expected. It was so nice to have that much time together and we all had a blast. Everyone was sad to go home the next day. It has us looking forward to the next time already! Here's just a few of the many pictures I took...
Audrey & I going down one of the outdoor slides together. This was Carter's favorite slide.
We found this great spot to hang out and chat. We could sit and watch the kids play on the floating snake and tubes. in the pic-Tim, Amelia, Mel, Amy, Emerson, Maelle, Hillary & Claire
My handsome boy absolutely loved it there! The second we left he asked to go back some day :)
Audrey kept playing with these water spout things
It was so much fun to watch the 3 boys (front to back-Gabe, Drew & Carter) play together. They weren't shy and the second we were all there they immediately started playing together as if they see each other all the time. They played on these jet skis for at least an hour.
That evening we ordered pizza and had a picnic in the Bunkelman suite. The Bunkelman's had a suite then the Gilles clan, Gaerthofner clan & Aprahamian clan shared a suite.
Kids picnicking on the floor & watching a movie
After letting the kids stay up WAY past bedtime it was time to get them tucked in for the night. Here's Angela reading them a bedtime story.
Drew & Carter looking too cute in the morning. They shared the pull out couch. Drew survived sharing a bed with my wiggle worm :)

I love these women so much! They are like my other sisters. I'm so grateful for our friendship and the fact that it has stood the test of time & distance. I can't wait to live closer to these amazing women!
We DEFINITELY have to make this an annual event! It was so, so fun and looking at the pictures makes me reminds me of the good times and makes me miss you all over again! Great job documenting the outing :)
